My humble suggestions.

[BeteNoire]

I'll try to compile them in this thread. I'm a very nitpicky person, so I will try to channel that into some form of success for this forum!

1) Give us some handy mods for the boards, like the rep system and countless others available for vB! :)

2) Not-so-strict modding. Rely heavily on users to report spam and off-topic, but don't go lock/delete crazy.

3) When it has enough population, give us forums for various topics such as sports, graphics, politics, etc. I realize these could theoretically go in the "off-topic" section, but it's best not to have things cluttered.

I will certainly add to these!

edit: oh yeah, will we be able to upload avatars any time soon? :) and images in sigs?

1) Great suggestion! Will definitely forward it

2) The only thing i am really concerned about is people giving bad/inaccurate information or people who only come here to troll/spam etc..

everyone is entitled to an opinion and i respect that, just know that your opinion isn't fact and that your opinion doesn't equal everyone elses.

3) see #1

4) We need an incentive for users to register to the boards. Atm, we have 3 active users and 18 guests - I'm stumped on how to do this atm but if it comes to me, I'll be sure to share.

5) ... I forgot what I was gonna put here.

oh yeah, and can we please have acct name, join date, etc. on the left side rather than above? :)

PLEASE!!!
Although I don't like the rep idea. But you know how it says "Junior Member"? This will change with more posts right? You could make cool statuses, like "OnLive Pwner" or "Can't get enough of OnLive" if we get more posts.

Yes, this would be cool. If users could vote on them, it would be even better...

Agreed:) I would like "OnLive Legend" for whoever has the highest amount of posts.

I would really like the forum to be black though with white text.

So... are we ever going to get pictures in the sig? If not, I guess I understand.

[BeteNoire]

That's a good question. Also, is the admin team considering moving the avatar/join date/post count/location/whatever to the left indent?

[BeteNoire]

Bump!

Also, how about a serious discussion forum, for politics, etc.?

[onlive]

For now we are not adding the stats to the left hand portion of the site. Do most people like that idea though?

As for a politics section thats what the "Everything else" folder is for. Since this is a discussion forum about Onlive, I feel we only need 2 off topic sections (one for video games and one for everything else).

Perhaps in the future as the site grows we can make some sub folders in the "Off topic" section, but I don't think it's needed right now.

Perhaps a poll could settle this question.

I agree, stats on zi left.
